TF365 Fullbacks of the Season - Poll & Discussion

[Honey Honey]

Nominations based on Premier League Fantasy Football points.

[Stan]

Walker and Alonso.

[Mazzari]

Might've gone Coleman if he hadn't gotten injured. Otherwise, same as Stan.

[LFCMadLad]

I don't think any of our FB's deserve to win this but for them to be nominated based on stats just shows that a certain person who says Milner & Clyne are 'bang average', knows absolutely fuck all 

I'll go Walker & Alonso.

Most of Milner's points have surely come from the penalties he scores though?! Obviously a goal is a goal but he's not the first name that comes to mind when it comes to picking top left-backs in the division.

He's certainly not one of the best left backs but he's not a left back. He has performed brilliantly for us in a position that he's never played before in his career.

Why no Danny Rose? He's been the best left back in the league this season, comfortably. I appreciate he's injured right now but still

 Bit of a stretch saying comfortably.  Alonso has been consistently performing at a great level. Scored a few goals and has done an influential job since the start of the season. Easily one of our better performers. 

[Honey Honey]

Rose is probably the best left back in the league but he didn't amass enough points for this seasons nominations because of injury.

It would be odd for someone to be in team of the season having played less than half the games.

Has he been out that long? Christ. I thought he'd only been injured a month

You were saying he needs replacing not long ago?

'Upgraded on'. He's done well this season but we could always improve in that position, especially with Europe next year. Upgrade doesn't mean he's a  poor player. 

[RandoEFC+]

Coleman because I'm biased and Alonso because I'm not biased enough to choose Baines who, to be fair, deserves to be acknowledged for a very solid season, but shouldn't be in contention for team of the year.

Based on fantasy football points Don't think I've ever called Milner average. Think he's a good player. Need another left back though clearly. Clyne has been nowhere near the best right back in the league. Probably our worst player after Moreno yesterday too

I watched the game and I've also watched the highlights back and Clyne did nothing wrong whatsoever? 

Nothing at all came down the right side because as usual Clyne barely gives teams a sniff. Almost all of West Brom's attacks came down the left and that's a usual theme in games against us. He didn't have his best game attacking wise but away from home against a tough side you need your defenders/fullbacks to be solid and that's exactly what Clyne was

He got beaten down the line far too easily on occasion, think it was second half and they got a cross over from the byline. Thankfully nothing came of it. He wasn't terrible by any means and it was a solid team performance but Clyne wasn't one of our better players.

[Dave]

Where are we playing Victor Moses? I'd have him as right back even if he is a right wingback because the way he's reinvented himself from a reject at Liverpool and West Ham in to a regular for a dominating side is quite remarkable.

[Dickie]

I'm sorry when did James Milner start playing left back?!?!
